The woods at Haliburton this weekend offer beautiful abstract shapes, textures and values.

Spring is around the corner, and the ongoing melt/freeze cycle has its effect on the landscape, often reducing the world around us to black and white shapes and patterns. Puddles reflect, and rocks and plants start to appear through the melting snow, patches of shape. Bare tree branches, dark with moisture, puncture the sky, offering beautiful transitions between earth and sky.

This week we will create an abstract in black and white. We might choose to be expressionist, or prefer to stick a little closer to a representational approach. Here a a few examples of black and white art/photography that should inspire.
